Savannah GA is also known as The Hostess City of the South. Gracious and welcoming, that nickname really sums up the one-of-a-kind locale established by General Oglethorpe back in 1733. Today, enjoying the architecture, the lovely seaside lifestyle and the artistic base which defines Savannah is ANDY LAVIOLA, who is shooting, editing and generally making the promo department spin like a top at the CBS affil there, WTOC. A native of Buffalo, Andy must be enjoying the southern lifestyle. His CSD CRAIG HARNEY is happy to have him be part of the team, where just about every one of them can “go from a blank piece of paper to a finished piece within a day” as Craig shared. Such a lovely thing to hear of happy people and happy work. Well Dunne! Andy and thanks Craig.

Fuse Networks has tapped JOE MARCHESE as their new SVP of Marketing and Digital. Many of you know Joe from his five years writing the Online Spin blog for Mediapost. Well Dunne! Joe.
